Think about it.

When people become hostile to one another, the relationship will never get better unless someone takes the first step to de-escalate - in effect to dis-arm, which is to say to be "disarming."

Disarming

adjective

removing or capable of removing hostility, suspicion, etc., as by being charming:

a disarming smile.
